I did ride it and I like the feel, and they do pretty well in the twisties. Id say they are comparable to a larger Super Moto. Still cool bikes, and since they are a new company I feel they have alot of room to grow and impress. 10 points on the cool factor though.
the 9 is comparable to a 600 I4.
the 1125 is a whole new ball game. It will keep up to a liter I4 in all sane (and some not to sane) riding. It will do everything a 750 will do, and sound better doing it too
Further, to most riders, it is more comfortable and more street friendly than a SS bike ON THE STREET.
